Why the Eucharist is also called “The Sacrifice of the Mass”

 Mass is the central act of worship to God. Community gathers to attend the celebrations and hear the word of God. Through participation in the mass, we find healing and peace in our souls. We are being restored and allows God to move our life as well as do the work. During the mass, we celebrate the eucharist which we received God’s blood and body through the representation of the consecrated bread and wine. It becomes food for our souls and nourishes it to continue to serve and live with God. In communion with God, we receive eternal life and forgiveness from our sins in exchange for His own life. It is a memorial of how He sacrificed on the cross in order for us to be saved. Through that, we obtain all graces and blessings that He wanted us to receive. God uses an instrument to proclaim His sacrifices on the cross through the priest. Therefore, the priest (or minister) says, "The body of Christ", when administering the host, and, "The blood of Christ", when presenting the chalice, the communicant who receives either one receives Christ, whole and entire— "Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity".
